Mark Watson plays a headline stand-up show at The Stables, supported by Shaparak Khorsandi and Sean McLoughlin, as part of IF: Milton Keynes International Festival.
Mark Watson headlines The Stables on Wednesday 2 December, with Shaparak Khorsandi and Sean McLoughlin supporting. It's a special extended headline set, and the whole night is produced by The Stables as part of IF: Milton Keynes International Festival.
If you've only caught Watson on the telly, there's plenty to go on. He's a regular on Taskmaster and Live At The Apollo, and has appeared on QI, Have I Got News For You, Would I Lie To You and The Celebrity Island with Bear Grylls. He's also a long-running Radio 4 voice with the series Mark Watson Talks A Bit About Life, and one third of the YouTube channel No More Jockeys, which has gathered over nine million views since 2020. He also hosts the World Snooker Tour's podcast alongside Stephen Hendry.
Beyond the screen and the airwaves, he's a writer of eight novels, from Bullet Points in 2004 to One Minute Away in 2025. He's currently touring the show Mark Watson Before It Overtakes Us, and the night at The Stables is part of that run. He's picked up the Panel Prize at the Edinburgh Fringe, Best Show at the Adelaide and Sydney Comedy Festivals, and several Chortle Awards, including a 2021 Legend of Lockdown for his online work Time Out.
